Butler inti u;ted that his wituesses were not all prCse.t, and he was not yet prepared to go into an invTestigation. Ile was willing. however, to waive a prelimi niry examinatioD, and give-bail for his appearance at court. Judge NJackey decided. to go on with the examination, with the understanding that the de f&ndants should -have ample time to get their witaesses, and that the exa alination should be adjourued from day to day for the purpose. The court I room was densely packed with negroes, aot more than a dozen whites being present. Tennant was called, sworn and preceeded to tell his story with rariatious. Upon his cross-examina tion by the court, he said that the State arms, used by his men, when the fired on the posse, belonged to Capt. Bullock's company, ahd that he had sent his men for them. His exa mination and that of Charles Whitlow, a member of his gang, lasted all the, eveuing, and the case was then ad journed over. Tennant is still in jail, under the charge of arson, and the negro lussy, who gave the informa tion concerning the burming, is also in custody. The responsibility fur these troubles can certainly not rest upod the white people of Edgefield County. There never was such an organized system of public plunder in New York or Coluni bia as there is in Edgefield. At the last election every County officer elect ed was a colored man, and the A ministration of the finances rest entire lv with the -favored race. Judge lackey. who is investigating the con dition of affairs, prouounces the entire system "a huge grand larceny." The Board of County Commissioners is composed entirely of negroes-who I are just able to write their own names. Tennant, the outlaw, is a inember of the board. On Friday Jdge Mackey told me that he attempted to obtain ,acces to the rccords of the office, but was unable to do so because the key I of the office was iu Columbia, in posses sion of the clerk of the board. who is also a member of the State Senate. The ProbAte Judge is a mulatto, named Bowie, from Georgi:i, an utterly in competent man, and one who, it is said, is not unkuown to the police au thorities in Augusta. The School C?ommiissioner is an illiterate negro boy. So is the Clerk of the Court. TheI chief deputy of the clerk is a mulatto from Ohio. who has been in the?Coun tv only a few mjonths. The Coroner is an incompetent negro. of whom 1Judge Mackey says : "The only ser eie he could render-the County wouldj be to make himself ithe subject of a cjooner' inquest." The Sheriff, a whit2 man. is described by Judg Mackey in tefollowing"e~m : dHe is an hionest and trustworthy man, but has a disagreeable habit of appropria. 1ting the funds of judgment creditors to his own use, on the ground that the Cvuuty has not paid him for dieting the prisoners under his charge." The oinion of Judge Mackey upon the Sadlministration of the jury law is emni nent.ly suggestive. Said he : "Any citizen who has had wrong done to person or property, even the most vio l2ist and ultra Democrat. can obtain justice, provided he first makes satis -factory financial arrangements with the Jury Commissioner," "In short" added the Judge, as I arose to depart. "you may say that I assert that the goveruntn i~n Edgefield County is a ast system of lareeary." is In the face of these facts, in tn face of all this official rascality, misrule and public pluridering, any unbiassed I.IerSOn, who came here and lived awhile ould be astonished to find the white citzens peaceful and law-abiding. Trhey are extremely sensitive, and oc easionally ~quarrel and fight among themselves; but the records prove that for the past four years they have exhi bited a degree of forbearance that enti ties them to the respect of the country. The lawlessness of Tennant and his rascally militia has occasionally led to disturbances between the blacks and whites, but in every instance, these were due to the threaitening attitude of the negroes themselves. Ou the 19th of last September, when the whites were alarmued by the action of the militia at Ridge Springs, and the centire County was under armis. a single a.t of violence would have led '.o a struggle, the result of which it is not dtlicult to foresee. And yet the whites r iained from attacking the negroes. li you add to the rs;ttenness of the (ounty government the injudicious - and indiscriminate irming of tile ne ~roes by Governor MIoses, you will hav'e the direct cause of these troubles. Thavt the notorious Tennant should hve been allowed to remain unmo le t '1 in the County jail for three nights protected by the very white men who have been so bitterly de - "ounced for their proscription of the ne "gro, anid in the face of the proof - awist him of being an incendliary df an utlaw, is as strange as it is true. in any Northern or Western comn muniy in the Unaited States lie would have been at once taken fr m the jail and promptly hung. I confess my - elf unable to understand the forbear ance of the white people of Edgefield County. It has been published abroad that th:re are hundreds of negroes hiding in the swamps of the County to save' their lives, ud that a negro is not safe here who exhibits a tendency to Republicanism in politics. This is Ian unmitigated falsehood. The records prove that there has rnot bee~n a single Wease of a negro -being killed for his political opinions in this County since athe war. A good deal of stress has been laid upon the fact that, at the tlst elect ion. a negro man was killed with a R{epublican4allot in his hand. learn from cr.edi Jwitnesses, who were present at *rrence,. that he man was kHll aTow brought on by his own party, and the thing wich he held in4bis hand whe2 he died was a "sling-shot," which, in the outrage mill," wag ground into a Re - ulcnballot. ~sh~'ibe for the IIEBAIA'.

Complete Refutation. Judge 3)ackey says that the white people of Edgefield are the victims of a "huge grand larceny." He has been there, has made thorough in vestization and he knows. Not one of the thousand aboinable lies which have been toll of this maligned coun ty arc true. The account which we give clsewhere of the condition of Edgefield tells a different tale, which should bring a blush to the face of the bitterest radical in the country. A comnplete refuta:ion is thus made by the report of Judge Mackey. . Pir%onal Reminiscences of*Gen. Lee.

Thc sub-committeeoftelus Southern outrage committee on Louis iana affairs in their report give a comuplete vindication of the Conserva -tives, and a rebuke to the aduinistra tioni. Ninety-five witnesses were cx - amined, and the evidence amouuts to fifteen huridred pages. "In Novemiber, 1874, the people of the State of Louisiaua did fairly have afree, peaceable and full registration and election, in which a clean Conser -vative majority was elected to the lower house of the Legislature, of Swhich majority the Conservatives were deprived by the unjust, illegal and ar tbitrary action of the returning board. '1 t: is-conceded by all parties -that the. Kellogg government is only upheld by the Federal m'litary. Indeed, in. the committee's judgment, the sub stantial citizens of the State will sub mit to any fair determination 'of the (j uestion of the late election or to any Sthing by which they can secure a firm Sand good government. What th8v seek is peace and an opportunity for Eprosperity. To that end they will Ssupport any form of government that r will afford them just protection. In e their distress they have got beyond any mere question of political party." - Sirant and the Third Term. e Grant is bent on carrying out the third term pioject. According to the views of the Washington corres 4 pendent of the News & Co,urier, the 2 apathy of the people encourages him )and his allies to pursue their plans. e They profess to believe that there has been a reaction since the people first rose to protest against the Louisia outrage, and further, that the indigna -tion meetings held were composed en tirly of Democrats, in the event of e Gra'nt's failure to coerce the South, a war with Spain is his next move. We cannot believe, though. that after tihe e many indignant expressions North and South that the people will submit d ta"mely to thia one-man power. It has zone on suffieiently long alrcady. But that the extremnest measures will be tried by Grant there can be no question of. Even now says this correspondent: The placing of the whole South Suder military rule, ti-e proclaiming of niartial law, and the triatl of citizens by drumuhead court-mairtial, are comn monly- discussed here in Washiingtou, in earnest and in jest; and almost rwithout protest. The White House organs urge and defend these extreme measures, and the carpet-baggers have already committed the Republican majority in Congress to them. And fyet men who should be prompt to .resent even a hint of such things y merely shrug their shoulders, and con tent themselves with the thought, "sufiient for the day is the evil thereof."
